Happiness is proving the plumbing issues are on the city's side of the problem. Not currently an emergency, so I can wait until normal business hours tomorrow to call and get the nice, efficient folks from the city to come and make my sewer problems go away. And then they shall go away. Bliss.

"Hey Dad, could you help me with my plumbing before going for your dinner" is probably one of the weirder birthday presents imaginable. Fortunately my dad really enjoys being helpful, so I think he enjoyed it.
